So Soccer has a bit of a legacy, and is still fun in its way. But it will still lurk in the shadows. Hidden behind the bigger names, the bigger franchises. I'll stick to my guess that it will fall to last place in the Wii Shop ranks, but those who do decide to download it may find this quirky release to be an amusing addition to their Channel array.

The main problem in Soccer is it is just so damn S-L-O-W, the speed in which the players run after the ball is painful to endure these days. It really does spoil what might be an otherwise OK game. We would advise avoiding this and waiting for a better game such as Nintendo World Cup on the NES or indeed Super Soccer on the SNES – both of these games can run rings around this dire title.
